War of words over backlog of grants for Keighley-district businesses

A WAR of words has broken out over Bradford Council’s handling of support grants for businesses forced to close during the pandemic. Keighley MP Robbie Moore has accused the council of dragging its heels over distributing the money, provided by the Government. He says some hard-hit businesses have been waiting months for desperately-needed grants. But Councillor Alex Ross-Shaw ­– Bradford Council’s executive member for regeneration, planning and transport – says the council is working “around the clock” to allocate the funds. And he accuses the Conservative MP of a “cheap political stunt”. Mr Moore says the council has a “huge” backlog of cases, many dating back to late last year.
